Pro for the best security. For more information, see the
FileMaker Pro User’s Guide.
1 Never store sensitive documents or databases inside the Web folder. With FileMaker Pro, you can
put images to share with container fields or static HTML pages that you want to publish in the
Web folder inside the FileMaker Pro folder, but due to web server architecture, all files in the
Web folder are accessible and might be deleted by others.

steps don’t produce unexpected results. For more information, see
“Scripts and Instant Web
Publishing” on page 27.
